What the Brand Says
About Honduras Gesha 100g Marysabel grew up in the Honduran region Marcala and stems from a long generation of coffee producers, from which she has harnessed her passion for nature and knowledge of the Honduran terroir. Moises is of Guatemalan origin. He worked as an accountant for a coffee exporter, however while spending his time at the cupping table he jumped wholeheartedly into specialty coffee. In the early 90’s, he was sent by his company as production manager to Honduras where he met Marysabel and was inspired to stay. In 1996 Moises and Marysabel married. Since then, they have two sons and run the farm as partners. Every year, the family optimizes the processing methods at their mill in Chinacla, while paying great attention to environmental protection and sustainability. Among other things, Moises has set up a modern coffee eco-pulper to save as much water as possible. For instance, whereas de-pulping a 46 kg batch of coffee cherries would require 120 liters, he now uses 40 liters. The water is recirculated and cleaned after each use. Moises has his own variety garden, which is affectionately called by Marysabel “Moises’ Garden of Eden”. Here he grows ancient, nearly forgotten coffee varieties in self-built greenhouses, does experiments and researches the effect and influence of temperature, water, wind, minerals and soil on his plants. We're thrilled to have Moises and Marysabel's gesha lot land in our roastery. Expect notes of raspberry, cacao nibs and white grapes with a wonderful jasmin aroma. The Facts: — Altitude: 1850m — Flavor notes: Raspberry, jasmin, white grape — Farm size: 200ha — Processing: Natural — Weight: 100g *Only available as whole beans Awards Tasting Notes Farm SpecificationsAbout Honduras Gesha 100g Marysabel grew up in the Honduran region Marcala and stems from a long generation of coffee producers, from which she has harnessed her passion for nature and knowledge of the Honduran terroir.
